Chapter 439: Chapter 439: Iron Blood Female Admiral VS Vengeful Female Deputy (Part 29) Chapter 439: Chapter 439: Iron Blood Female Admiral VS Vengeful Female Deputy (Part 29) In the guest quarters of the Situ Family, Enoch watched the displeased-looking descendants of the Situ Family with a harmless smile on his face.
He, of course, knew what they were here for.
Gu Shengyin wasn’t here. Such matters were not suitable for her to handle. If Enoch couldn’t deal with these people by himself, he would never be able to gain the Situ Family’s approval.
The hot-blooded and confident young men of the Situ Family, who previously wanted to “teach a certain ignorant young man a lesson”, were all stumbling out of Enoch’s courtyard, bruised and supporting each other.
“You really didn’t hold back,” Gu Shengyin said.
Enoch snorted, “These guys, trying to separate me and my wife, how could I not give them a harsh lesson? Besides, I reckon this is the only chance I’ll have to beat them up fair and square.” Once their relationship was formally established, all these men would be his brothers-in-law, with no excuse to hit them again.
Gu Shengyin gave him a sidelong glance: Such a petty man!
Against all the Empire people’s expectations, Enoch managed to loosen the Situ Family up with his own abilities, and the Patriarch Situ personally announced their engagement news.
Less than an hour after Patriarch Situ announced the engagement, the name Enoch topped the Star Network list of “men most wanted dead” among all the men.
Even many Empire citizens expressed that they couldn’t accept their goddess marrying a man of no significance.
“Look at this, everyone thinks you’re not worthy of me.” Gu Shengyin sat in an armchair by the window, with a book spread out on her lap.
She had shed the handsome military uniform, a rare sight, and was dressed in a loose and casual home outfit, basked in Sunshine, appearing carefree and lazy.
Enoch, seeing her teasing look, hmphed, bent down, and effortlessly lifted her up.
“Whether I’m worthy of you or not isn’t for others to decide,” he said in a low breath near her ear.
Feeling the changes in the man’s body, Gu Shengyin glanced at him coldly, “Keep it within limits.”
Enoch chuckled softly, “Didn’t you quite enjoy it?”
He timely showed a look of quiet resentment and sadness, “Or are you saying you only like me in bed, and don’t recognize me afterward?”
Gu Shengyin looked at the man who was getting too into his role, raising her eyebrows slightly, “You’re right.”
She extended her right hand and gently lifted the man’s chin, “I must say you look handsome enough to be a perfect bed warmer.”
Playing along, Enoch carried her towards the bed, “The weather today is just perfect, I’ll show you just how suited I am to warm the bed.”
Soon, the bedroom was filled with indescribable sounds.
No matter how unhappy the worshipers of Situ Jin in the Empire were, the couple’s engagement banquet was still held as planned.
But Gu Shengyin discovered that she had still underestimated a certain man’s pride.
She watched the sudden arrival of the neatly arranged fleet marked with the Storm Chamber of Commerce insignia, and that uniform chorus of “Madam,” first in surprise, then with a touch of incredulous amusement.
“When did you become so serious?”
Dressed unusually in formal attire, Enoch was holding her hand. Hearing her, he responded, “How could I possibly let others think I’m living off a woman? Even if I don’t mind, you, as the Empire’s foremost Goddess, truly marrying a man with no capabilities, wouldn’t that give rise to gossip?”
He couldn’t bear to have his woman suffer the slightest grievance because of him.
